Let's look at an example.
We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8
Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.
To get the denominators to be the same, we can...
- multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48
- multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48
At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so
8/48 + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48
Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.
The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.
The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24
Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24
Answer:
The value of y is -5
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
------> equation A
------> equation B
we know that
If x and y satisfy both equations, then (x,y) is the solution of the system of equations
Using a graphing tool
Remember that
The solution of the systems of equations is the intersection point both graphs
The intersection point is (2,-5)
therefore
The solution of the system of equations is the point (2,-5)
The value of y is -5
Simplify brackets
(7w - 2 - w = 2(3w - 1)
simplify 7w - 2 - w to 6w - 2
(6w - 2 = 2(3w - 1)
Expand
(6w - 2 = 6w - 2)
Since both sides are equal, there are infinitely many solutions
Answer: C) INFINITELY MANY
Answer:
Yes it does.

Answer:
D. 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment lengths are equal, so ...
x^2 = 90-x
x^2 +x -90 = 0 . . . . . . add x-90 to put in standard form
(x +10)(x -9) = 0 . . . . . factor
The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: -10, 9.
The positive value of x is 9.
